Replace string between two items

Question

Fairly simple question, how can I replace \n with {br} between two <blockquote> and </blockquote> tags?

thought this would work, but it doesn't:

val = val.replace(/<blockquote>\b\n\b<\/blockquote>/igm, "{br}");

Answer 1

Use a replacement callback:

val = val.replace(
    /<blockquote>[\s\S]*?<\/blockquote>/i,
    function(m) {return m.replace(/\n/g,"{br}");}
);
